Can't force git to use https:// instead of git:// #5257
Closed
Description
Git has a simple way to do this in the config file.
[url "https://"]
insteadOf = git://
However npm seems to throw out the environment in lib/cache.js
var gitEnv_
function gitEnv () {
// git responds to env vars in some weird ways in post-receive hooks
// so don't carry those along.
if (gitEnv_) return gitEnv_
gitEnv_ = {}
for (var k in process.env) {
if (!~['GIT_PROXY_COMMAND','GIT_SSH','GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY'].indexOf(k) && k.match(/^GIT/)) continue
gitEnv_[k] = process.env[k]
}
return gitEnv_
}
So I can't inject a GIT_CONFIG or anything.
I've hand-hacked it into the addRemoteGit function in lib/cache.js with
u = u.replace(/^git:/, "https:")
but this variable should be pulled from a config somewhere
